programming
How long it takes to learn to program?
Today I've found an interesting article called
Teach yourself programming in Ten Years.
As a contra-point of our 'fast food' world it supports my maxim that there are no short cuts to proficiency.

One of my creepy monsters - Wanda
I've started using Windows again for most of my work, but I miss a lot some little tweaks from the Ubuntu environment. Although I have several virtual machines it's a bit stupid to start a virtual machine only because of those tweaks.
One of the programs I missed a lot in Windows environment is 'fortunes' and its wrapper called Wanda the fish. So I decided to create Windows Wanda port. Actually it's not a port, but it's Windows app, that works with Linux fortune files. That's all.
It's only in beta state and the tray icon is not animated as it should be.
Enjoy!
